Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2015187308A1] Systems and methods for delay control are described herein. In one embodiment, a delay system comprises a first delay circuit configured to provide a voltage bias to a second delay circuit, wherein the voltage bias controls a delay of the second delay circuit, and to update the voltage bias at an update rate. The delay system also comprises an update controller configured to adjust the update rate of the first delay circuit. For example, the update controller may adjust the update rate based on timing requirements of a memory interface incorporating the delay system. The update rate may be reduced when the timing requirements are more relaxed to reduce power, and may be increased when the timing requirements are tighter.
